Chapter 163 Invitation from Real Madrid
The referee blew the whistle to the end of the game.
AC Milan defeated Barcelona four-to-two at home. A week later, both sides will move to Barcelona's Camp Nou Stadium for the second leg.
On the rostrum of San Siro Stadium, AC Milan Club Chairman Berlusconi was accepting congratulations from Russian Prime Minister Putin. Putin praised Zhang Yang. Bet was very happy with his smile on his face. He turned his head and looked off the court. His eyes were firmly locked on the hat trick in this game, making Barcelona miserable.
It would be even better if this kid could be more obedient. This is what Berlusconi was thinking at this moment.
The AC Milan boss's eyes flashed with an unpredictable light.
Just the day after the match against Barcelona, Mendes, as Chang Yang's agent, received a call from Real Madrid Chairman Mr. Calderon himself.
The current leader of Galaxy Battleships has proposed a very attractive plan for Mr. Super Agent - to introduce Zhang Yang to Real Madrid.
Mendes cannot be moved by Calderon's proposal. The purpose of the agent is to pursue the maximization of interests. Of course, it is common for agents with professional ethics to maximize the interests of themselves and their players.
Objectively speaking, Mendes is also a more professional agent. He knows that being friends with Zhang Yang is much more beneficial than Leng Bingbing's employment relationship.
Mendes of course knew how much profit Zhang Yang would bring to Real Madrid if he transferred to Real Madrid. In addition to the high transfer fees and signing fees, joining the "No. 1 Wealthy Family" in today's world football can maximize Zhang Yang's reputation in the shortest time.
But this premise is that he must first persuade Zhang Yang to agree to the transfer. In addition, Mendes still knows Zhang Yang very well. This is a young man who pursues glory better than everything. Zhang Yang has just arrived in Milan. If he doesn't get any honor, he will transfer and leave like this? The possibility is too small. This young man wishes to make the fans of the team he plays for thank him for ten thousand years!
He knew Zhang Yang's character well. He was not the kind of person who would change his principles for money and fame. So Mendes did not think that Zhang Yang would agree to leave the club after only one year of coming to AC Milan.
But Mendes didn't want to reject Calderon so simply. After all, in Mendes' heart, he still tended to Calderon's proposal. No one could refuse Real Madrid's invitation without hesitation.
Mendes told Calderon that he needed to tell Zhang Yang to understand Zhang Yang's ideas before talking about it. Mendes also wanted to have a glimmer of hope to persuade Zhang Yang. In fact, after Zhang Yang and Berlusconi's "bad relationship" was confirmed, Mendes was considering whether to help Zhang Yang find a new partner. Of course, these are Mendes's ideas in private now and has not communicated with Zhang Yang yet. However, as an agent, he must not consider comprehensive, right? In addition, Mendes knew that Zhang Yang was already one of the best young stars in the world football world, and now he is AC Milan's number one scorer. If Zhang Yang wants to transfer, there are only those limited families who are qualified to introduce Zhang Yang. Of course, in Mendes' eyes, Real Madrid is definitely the most qualified one.
In addition, in Mendes' heart, he still hopes to leave a way out. Even if it doesn't work now, he may not say it in the future. Who can tell the future exactly?
Also, with Mendes' connections in football, he clearly supported it. Calderon's introduction of Zhang Yang was not a temporary idea, nor did he watch AC Milan and Barcelona. He saw Zhang Yang's three shots and one pass when facing Real Madrid's old rival Barcelona. It was just that Zhang Yang's wonderful performance in the game against Barcelona made Calderon make his mind.
It's not a small decision, Calderon's life is not easy now in Real Madrid.
Just last week, in a football program called "Stone Cast", host Jose Antonio Aberan did not hide his dissatisfaction and distrust of Calderon in his program. He listed all the big and small lies that Calderon had told in front of the media since he took office.
"There is no doubt that the lawyer-born chairman completely moved the way the court was spitting out of the court to the management team. In his words, the value of the TV broadcast contract signed by the club could change from 800 million to 1.1 billion in a few days. As for the failure to win Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo, the biggest lie was exposed." The host criticized Calderon in this way.
This is a strange situation. Real Madrid is likely to win the league this season, but Real Madrid fans seem to be increasingly dissatisfied with Calderon.
This fuse was Calderon's promise when he ran for chairman, "If I were the chairman, Kaka would come to Madrid."
After the failed acquisition of Kaka last summer, Calderon did not admit that he did not get Kaka, but said that "70% of the members voted to tell me that they didn't want Kaka." The contrast between the past and after made Real Madrid fans out of anger and further intensified the contradiction.
On the website of Ass, fans left a message saying: "I think the best thing for Real Madrid now is Calderon and Mijatovic leave as soon as possible, and stay here to defile our sacred white." And on the Real Madrid forum called "White Heart", people can easily find scolding like the following: "They are two gangsters who have ruined Real Madrid's reputation. We have now become the laughing stock of the world. I said, gangsters, quit quickly and get out of Madrid!"
Indeed, Calderon has been subject to great external pressure from fans, but in fact, the most fatal blow is the internal doubts of Real Madrid. There have always been people who were suspected of cheating when they were running for Real Madrid president. Some people have never stopped investigating mail ballot cheating cases. The biggest progress is that since the Madrid court intervened in the matter, hundreds of voting members have been questioned and collected evidence in half a year. According to legal analysts, if the cheating is true, the person indicted the prosecution will bypass the club and point directly at Calderon himself. In fact, internal news revealed that in order to avoid being implicated, several management members have applied for resignation to the chairman and left immediately after the replacement candidate is in place.
Due to the fraud cases of votes, many external business partners of the club, who are not involved in their company's reputation, have announced that they will terminate their cooperative relationships with Real Madrid and Real Madrid presidents. Among them, the famous local businessman Alphonso Caraxa even fought back. While claiming to establish an anti-Calderon league, he also disclosed a lot of inside information about the chairman's team's use of their power to make moves. Especially in terms of ticket allocation, Calderon's staff once exposed: "Many tickets that should have been assigned to ticket booking members were drawn out to the related households for no reason by the supervisors."
Obviously, Calderon knows that under the current circumstances, although Real Madrid performed well in the league this season, it can leave a good reputation as a league champion in the history of the club. However, if he does not make any difference, he will definitely get out after the end of the season.
He must save himself.
His self-rescue behavior is to introduce Zhang Yang and bring this most popular scorer in football to the Bernabeu Stadium.
Calderon believed that if he could really bring Zhang Yang to the Bernabeu, then all the accusations and investigations of him would disappear, and all the suspicions of him would no longer exist.
Fans will welcome the Chinese young man with the warmest cheers, and at the same time, his chairmanship will be stable.
Just as Calderon claimed last summer that he would bring Kaka to the Bernabeu, this time, he played the card Zhang Yang.
Moreover, after the close meeting between Calderon and Mijatovic, the conclusion was that now is the best time to introduce Zhang Yang. Berlusconi does not like this Chinese who can score super goals. As long as Real Madrid can show sincerity that Berlusconi cannot refuse, it is definitely not impossible to introduce Zhang Yang.
When Mendes told Zhang Yang the news, Zhang Yang opened his mouth wide. He was really surprised and stunned. On the one hand, he didn't expect Real Madrid to invite him, and on the other hand, he didn't expect Real Madrid to invite him at this time. Don't the Real Madrid people know that he has just joined Milan for less than a season?
"Hey, Zhang Yang, what's wrong with you?" Mendes heard the other end of the phone and smiled and joked, "It's not that I'm so happy, of course, I can understand that no one can refuse the invitation from Real Madrid."
'No one can refuse the invitation from Real Madrid?' Is it right? Zhang Yang reacted from surprise and smiled. "Jorge, I think this is funny. I just came to AC Milan, how could I transfer and leave so quickly? Well, let's not talk about how long I have been here. The important thing is that I stayed well in AC Milan, why should I leave? Please refuse them for me and say I am honored, but I am very happy in Milan now and have never considered the possibility of leaving."
"It's really all good here?" Mendes muttered.
"What did you say?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Uh, nothing, I said you have thought it through?" Mendes said.
Zhang Yang naturally heard Mendes' muttering, but he didn't say anything. After all, it was really difficult to deal with, and it was also caused by his own reasons, so it was difficult to blame Mendes.
"Well, I've thought it through, Jorge." Zhang Yang nodded, "I just came here and haven't won any honors yet. How could I leave? I won't consider transferring until I conquer here. Haha." Zhang Yang said with a smile.
Mendes sighed in his heart, and he knew it would be the result. It would be a waste of time to call Zhang Yang. "Okay, I'll give you that gentleman." Although he was a little unwilling to give up. Mendes knew Zhang Yang's personality and there was nothing to talk about. The player himself did not want to transfer, and the agent had no choice unless they could fool the player. Obviously, Zhang Yang was not the kind of person who would be fooled by the agent and change his decision.
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Jorge. Haha!" Zhang Yang hung up the phone with a smile.
"Leave it to me," said Mendes. "Prepare for the league and the second leg of the game against Barcelona."
Since Mendes received the final response from Zhang Yang, he temporarily died and brought Zhang Yang to Real Madrid, and cared about Zhang Yang's current state. After all, for him, the better Zhang Yang's performance, the more he and Zhang Yang will benefit.
"Don't worry, I'm in a good state." Zhang Yang said confidently.
After half an hour, Mendes rejected the suggestion of Real Madrid chairman Calderon in a relatively polite manner. He told the gentleman that Zhang Yang is very happy in AC Milan now and is very satisfied with the current situation and does not want to go anywhere.
"That's a pity, but I still won't give up. Zhang is a great player. Only when he comes to Real Madrid can he become a real superstar. Real Madrid needs such a star, and Zhang also needs the stage of Real Madrid!" Calderon said with regret, but he seemed to be planning to give up in his words.
Calderon did not give up. After failing to introduce AC Milan star Kaka, Calderon obviously could not accept that he had hit a nail in AC Milan players again. Moreover, Mijatovic has been making suggestions to Calderon. It is much less difficult to introduce Zhang Yang than to introduce Kaka. Although Zhang Yang can score goals, in Berlusconi's heart, Zhang Yang's status is incomparable to Kaka. If Kaka is the real non-selling product of AC Milan, then Zhang Yang is a "high-priced product". As long as the price can be afforded, the Milanese people will not refuse it at once.
Calderon deeply agrees that since he cannot open the gap in the players, then just make a fuss about the club.
The next day, a news broke out in Spain's "As":
Real Madrid intends to introduce AC Milan's Chinese striker Zhang Yang!
"Real Madrid President Calderon has always admired Zhang Yang. He said he is a fan of this Chinese scorer, especially after AC Milan won Barcelona in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Calderon praised Zhang Yang's performance. The Real Madrid Chairman said that he is now 'don't think about tea or food' for this Chinese scorer. He praised Zhang Yang as the kind of player who can change the results of the game alone. What Real Madrid needs most now is such a key star."
"Real Madrid captain Raul also praised Zhang Yang. Real Madrid captain praised Zhang Yang as one of the most threatening scorers in football today, and said that he was looking forward to partnering with Zhang Yang..."
"Real Madrid head coach Schuster also said that if Zhang Yang can really join Real Madrid, Real Madrid will have an offensive line that trembles throughout Europe. He believes that the offensive trident composed of Robinho - Raul - Zhang Yang will sweep the world!"
"After real Madrid fans learned that the Chairman was interested in introducing AC Milan's popular scorer Zhang Yang, they really felt a certain favor for the Chairman who repeatedly disappointed them. Of course, if it is finally proved that this is a lie and a scam again, Mr. Calderon will not be far away from the chairman's box at the Bernabeu." - "Marca"
Zhang Yang was not aware of these reports from the Spanish media, because it was only Spain that was hyping up the matter, and there seemed to be no trouble on the Apennine Peninsula.
However, after the training that day, on the way to the locker room through the mixed interview area, Zhang Yang was surrounded by some reporters as always and requested an interview.
Zhang Yang had long been accustomed to this. He pointed to the sweat on his body and said with a smile, "It's only two minutes to interview, I have to take a hot shower. If I catch a cold like this, Mr. Ancelotti will go wild."
After a burst of laughter, a reporter asked Zhang Yang very anxiously: "Zhang, Spain said you are going to join Real Madrid. Is there any such thing? Have you ever had any contact with Real Madrid?"
Zhang Yang was stunned. The reporter spoke very quickly, and he didn't hear it clearly at the beginning.
"What did you say?" Zhang Yang asked.
"I said-Spain is rumoring that you are going to Real Madrid now." The reporter said it again, "Real Madrid is already welcoming you."
I'm fucking!
Zhang Yang cursed in his heart. He vaguely knew what was going on, but he continued to ask the reporter: "You said Spain is reporting that I am going to Real Madrid?"
"That's right." The reporter nodded. Of course, there are still differences in fact. Spain just hyped Real Madrid's favor for Zhang Yang every day, but it was not so sure that Zhang Yang was going to join Real Madrid. Of course, Spain didn't say that, which did not prevent the Apennine Peninsula from distracting its thinking and processing it.
Zhang Yang's face looked a little ugly, and then said to the reporter: "I can tell you about this matter now. I have not communicated with Real Madrid in any way, and I will not go to Real Madrid. I am very good in Milan. Very good!"
After saying this, Zhang Yang left the reporters behind and quickly walked into the locker room.
Zhang Yang knew that all this was done by Real Madrid. They wanted to create public opinion influence, so that the media really thought they had connections with Real Madrid, and joined Real Madrid, and communicate with AC Milan's senior management, taking a two-pronged approach. Of course, it would be even better if Milan fans could successfully make them think that they had betrayed the team and then attacked themselves.
Zhang Yang is a little angry.
He hates this feeling!
I hate this feeling of being obscene!
Although this kind of behavior is not uncommon during player transfers and some people don’t care about it, Zhang Yang just feels that he is being humiliated and he is very unhappy.
Soon, the reports and hype in Spain were crazily reprinted by the Italian media. Not only the Apennines, the British Peninsula, Portugal, France and China, were talking about it for a while, as if Zhang Yang was really going to join Real Madrid.
The request to apply for an interview with Zhang Yang was filled with desks of the AC Milan Club's public relations department.
The 32nd round of the Serie A match against Barcelona this weekend with AC Milan and Cagliari, which attracted the attention of many media and fans.
Cagliari is not a strong team, and this game is not a peak showdown, so it was not very attractive.
However, because of the 'bounce' between Zhang Yang and Real Madrid, the game has attracted much attention.
Many people are wondering whether Zhang Yang is now interfered by media reports. Will this young man's condition be affected and will it show up and down? In addition, the second leg of the 2007/2008 Champions League against Barcelona will be matched in the middle of next week. Will Zhang Yang be affected by that game and have some reservations in this game.
Even AC Milan head coach Carlo.
Ancelotti was also a little worried about Zhang Yang's mood and condition. He found Zhang Yang to talk before the game, but Zhang Yang firmly told Ancelotti that he was fine, not only was he okay, but now he was extremely eager to score goals!
He asked the head coach to rest assured.
Seeing Zhang Yang so resolutely, Ancelotti also chose to believe in his players.
"ZHANG - GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG! Zhang Yang scored a goal! This is the fourth goal scored this week! After a hat-trick between the Champions League and Barcelona, he continued his hot state in the league and scored a goal for AC Milan at the beginning! The media's hype about his scandal with Real Madrid did not affect his state, but made him more fighting spirit, which was simply...too crazy!!"
